What If Crowley and Her
Accomplices Succeed?

American Spectator, by David Catron Original Article

Posted By: StormCnter- 10/19/2012 6:15:26 AM Post Reply

Shortly after Obamacare was passed and signed by the President, Michael Tanner of the Cato Institute noted a sudden plethora of articles that had begun to appear in a wide variety of MSM outlets about the probable ill-effects of "reform." This prompted him to ask, "Where were these reporters before the passage of the health care bill?" The answer to this question is now pretty obvious. They were colluding, via JournoList and other such forums that we don't know about, to make sure that no one screwed up and told the truth

It’s Not Just Obama’s Lies —
It’s the Premise of Obama’s Lies

With CNN’s Candy Crowley shamelessly throwing President Obama a Libya life-preserver at Tuesday night’s debate, the so-called Mohammed video is back in the news. That ought to offend sensible people — and not just because the president, aided and abetted by Ms. Crowley, is lying when he now claims, despite weeks of denials, to have regarded the Benghazi massacre from the first as a pre-planned terrorist attack. For weeks, Obama and his minions attempted to hoodwink the country into believing that the murders of our ambassador and three other Americans were triggered when Muslim protests over a “movie”

Conservative critics have launched an attack on CNN Chief Political Correspondent Candy Crowley, who moderated Tuesday's second presidential debate, after she corrected former Gov. Mitt Romney's claim that President Barack Obama did not refer to the consulate attack in Benghazi as an "act of terror." Obama said in the debate that on September 12, he called the attack in Libya that killed four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, an "act of terror."

Governor Romney spoke tonight at the annual Alfred E. Smith Dinner, followed by President Obama. I thought Obama was good, but Mitt was great. He had excellent material and the audience was incredibly receptive. He is feeling it (and Obama is feeling the heat). As the Right Scoop has it, Romney “delivered line after line, mostly about the president. In fact he landed some pretty hard blows on the president, namely one where in using the Sesame Street reference he said that President Obama’s remarks ‘are brought to you by the letter O and the number 16 Trillion.’ Ouch!

SAN FRANCISCO—The San Francisco Giants have fielded their top talent for the Major League Baseball playoffs this week, but even some of their most elite have made errors. There was, for example, veteran George Zarzana's blooper in Sunday's opener in the National League Championship Series. Mr. Zarzana suited up for the game against the St. Louis Cardinals, jogged confidently onto the field and settled into his position. Then he promptly fell off the stool. Mr. Zarzana's position was next to the dugout behind first base, and he would be called a ball boy if he were a little younger.

On Tuesday night's debate, the evening's most notorious exchange did not begin with moderator Candy Crowley's wildly appropriate intervention on the "act of terror" question. It almost assuredly began minutes earlier. The audience question that prompted the exchange came from Long Islander Kerry Ladka, who, reasonably enough, asked in regards to the Libyan consulate, "Who denied enhanced security and why?" The question went to President Barack Obama, and he launched into a well-rehearsed set piece about how he was handling the issue. Mitt Romney responded much as one would expect him to respond,

Remember when President Barack Obama was likable? Once upon a time the public viewed the incumbent more favorably than his challenger by large margins. These days Obama’s favorable and unfavorable ratings are similar to Mitt Romney’s. The televised debates have unveiled the current administration as alternately listless, manic, angry, soporific, rude, bullying, aloof, and thin-skinned. Americans who have just begun to tune into the election are seeing the president unmediated. They no longer are looking at him through the scrim of fawning press, majestic settings, and roaring crowds. And they are discovering that Obama is not so likable

Obama Had Better

Democrats are counting on President Obama getting some kind of a bounce in opinion polls as a result of the fact that he did better in the second presidential debate than he did in the first one. But looking at the latest round of polls of the presidential race, he had better hope so. The latest Gallup tracking poll that measures opinion over the period of October 11-17 shows the president trailing Mitt Romney by a shocking seven points at 52-45 percent. This is the biggest Romney lead in any poll all year.

Whistle-blower audio:
Sen. Claire McCaskill’s husband
cut business deals in Senate
Dining Room

Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill’s husband used the U.S. Senate Dining Room to cut business deals selling tax credits tied to stimulus money, a whistle-blowing executive inside his company alleged on an audio recording exclusively obtained by The Daily Caller. “The thing that irritated me about this was he [McCaskill’s husband Joseph Shepard] entertained these outside investors in the Senate Dining Room,” the whistle-blower said. “That’s where he closed the deal.” The whistle-blower, Craig Woods, was a longtime high-ranking official within Shepard’s business empire, serving first as chief financial officer and then as vice president and chief underwriter

In June you must give fascists hell. -- Yeasayer- In 1936 Joe Louis faced off against Max Schmeling. Louis was young and undefeated. More significantly for our purposes, he was the pride of his people. The shadow of Jack Johnson still loomed -- a man who had lived a sordid life, consorted with white women, and drove the country to riot. Unlike Johnson, Louis was a "credit to his race." He was clean. He didn't trash talk. He handled his business in the ring and humbly returned to his corner. He was distinctly aware of his status as a standard-bearer,

EPA’s illegal human experiments

Washington Times [DC], by Steve Milloy Original Article

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been sued in federal court for allegedly conducting illegal experiments on human beings. The case tests whether a government agency can violate the law and the most sacrosanct ethics of scientific research — and get away scot-free. Based on thousands of pages of documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, since 2004 and continuing through the Obama administration, the EPA intentionally has been exposing dozens, if not hundreds, of human subjects to extraordinarily high levels of air pollutants such as diesel exhaust and fine particulate matter,

Obama’s ‘Doubled Fuel Efficiency’ Con

National Review Online, by Henry Payne Original Article

In the second presidential debate, President Obama touted his MPG mandates as evidence of his commitment to energy independence. “That’s why we doubled fuel efficiency standards on cars,” said Obama at the Hofstra town hall. “That means that in the middle of the next decade, any car you buy, you’re going to end up going twice as far on a gallon of gas.” No, you won’t. The MPG edict is, in fact, evidence of the false promise of government regulation. Never mind the “doubling” of fuel economy to 54.5 mpg by 2025,

While attending a conference last month, the president of the King’s College was spotted in the company of a woman other than his wife. At a typical institution of higher learning, a sighting like that might not have turned into a major controversy. (Snip)But his recent foray into film has been his most visible undertaking yet. The film, an attack on President Obama, accuses him of imperiling the country by channeling the anti-colonialist beliefs of his father.

WASHINGTON — In the first 48 hours after the deadly Sept. 11 attacks on U.S. diplomatic outposts in Libya, senior Obama administration officials strongly alluded to a terrorist assault and repeatedly declined to link it to an anti-Muslim video that drew protests elsewhere in the region, transcripts of briefings show. The administration’s initial accounts, however, changed dramatically in the following days, according to a review of briefing transcripts and administration statements, with a new narrative emerging Sept. 16 when U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice asserted in a series of TV appearances that the best information available

‘Today I am pledging to cut the deficit in half by the end of my first term in office,” President Obama boldly declared on February 23, 2009. He added that this “means taking responsibility right now, this administration, for getting our spending under control.” Among Obama’s parade of disappointments, this vehicle may be the most dangerous. Obama was inaugurated about a third of the way through fiscal year 2009, and that year’s deficit totaled $1.41 trillion. Had he halved this shortfall, FY 2012’s deficit should have remained below $705 billion.

Winning ‘national’

The 2012 presidential contest revolves around one central question: Will this be a national or a state-by-state election? If it’s a national election — one dominated by an overarching theme — Mitt Romney will win. His theme is that President Obama has failed and it’s time for a new direction. We can see, over the past two weeks, how this theme is starting to move voters nationwide — with polls tightening even in states like Washington and California and Massachusetts. OK: Romney won’t come even remotely close to winning any of those states — but if things continue as they’re going,

Open Homicides Possibly

The LAPD continues to battle for audio tapes that could hold clues to a dozen open homicides potentially linked to the murderous "Manson family," officials told ABC News. The open cases came to light during a legal battle first reported by the Los Angeles Times and confirmed by ABC News. "We do have open cases from that time; there is a possible link," Los Angeles Police Department Cmdr. Andrew Smith, who heads the department's public information section, told ABC News. The tapes, recorded by Manson disciple Tex Watson, could hold information that helps to solve the decades-old homicides

"Let's be very clear about this. The president talked about what he knew and when he knew it," Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said on Tuesday night when asked about the Benghazi attack. But when did the president first learn from intelligence reports that the assault on Benghazi was a pre-planned terrorist attack, not spontaneous mob violence in response to a YouTube video? That's a question Messina said he couldn't answer. "Listen, you're asking a campaign guy about an issue that, you know, go ask [White House Press Secretary Jay] Carney," Messina told me.

Anti-Obama crusader Dinesh D'Souza has resigned his position as president of the evangelical King's College in Manhattan two days after World magazine reported that he was engaged to his (much younger) girlfriend while still married to (but separated with) his wife of twenty years. However, despite the resignation, the only transgression that D'Souza cops to is an unfamiliarity with what Christianity expected of him in this situation. In a classic Costanzian plea of ignorance ("Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?"), D'Souza tells Christianity Today:

DOMA Ruling Seems Good For Gays,

If you support equality for gays and lesbians, Thursday’s ruling by a federal court in New York striking down the Defense of Marriage Act seems very good. The problem is it’s too good. Why? Because now that two federal courts have struck down DOMA’s key provisions in the past six months, the matter is almost certainly going to the Supreme Court, and the Second Circuit’s interpretation of equal protection in Windsor v. United States is more expansive than anything the high court has yet endorsed. The facts of the case were strong: Edith Windsor is an 83-year-old widow.

The first questioner in the second presidential debate on Tuesday was a 20-year-old college student who noted the grim employment picture in the nation, then asked Mitt Romney, “What can you say to reassure me, but more importantly my parents, that I will be able to sufficiently support myself after I graduate?” Romney’s answer, which mentioned keeping student loan indebtedness down, was short on specifics. But President Obama answer’s, when his turn came around, was short on facts. “What I want to do,” he said, “is build on the five million jobs
